Bologna vs Atalanta prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - September 28, 2024
In the sixth round of Italy's Serie A, Bologna will face Atalanta on Saturday, September 28. The match is scheduled to begin at 20:45 Central European Time. This prediction is provided by Dailysports experts.
Bologna
Bologna is gradually finding its rhythm. This season, the team has only lost to Napoli, but it struggled to secure victories in Serie A.
Between domestic league matches, Bologna started their Champions League campaign with a draw against Shakhtar Donetsk. The first win under new head coach Italiano came just last weekend when Bologna defeated Monza away.
Atalanta
Atalanta has been underwhelming so far, and the start of the new season can be considered a failure. In their last game against Como, "La Dea" suffered their third loss in five Serie A matches.
Notably, the team is still performing well in attack, but their defense has been a disaster. With 11 goals conceded, Atalanta tops the list of teams with the worst defensive records.
Match Facts
- Bologna is unbeaten in four consecutive matches.
- Atalanta has conceded in four straight Serie A games.
- Bologna averages 0.7 goals per game at home, while Atalanta averages 1.7 goals per game away.
Probable Lineups
- Bologna: Skorupski, Posch, Casale, Lucumí, Beukema, Ndoye, Aebischer, Freuler, Moro, Urbanski, Castro.
- Atalanta: Carnesecchi, Djimsiti, Ghin, Kolašinac, Zappacosta, Bellanova, De Roon, Lookman, Pašalić, De Ketelaere, Retegui.
Head-to-Head
In their last ten encounters, both teams have won an equal number of matches, but Bologna claimed victory in the last three meetings.
Prediction
Matches involving Atalanta are always exciting and often end with a high number of goals. I believe this game will be no different. My bet is on a total of over 2 goals.
